Speed

9 to fix34
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.0 s · 896 KiB

    About 896 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 34

    34/100

    Your mobile performance score is 34. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 5.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and drip-apex.com and others), adding 1.5 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    550 ms · 385 KiB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (385 KiB).

  • Google Tag Manager adds 685 ms

    685 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 685 ms of main-thread work and 699 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Render-blocking requests

    750 ms

    13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.

  • 19 long tasks on the main thread

    19 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 516 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 1,552 HTML elements

    The page has 1,552 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    50 ms · 21 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 21 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    49 KiB

    1 image could be 49 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    10 KiB

    About 10 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Chained critical requests

    Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

  • Forced reflow

    Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

  • Minify JavaScript

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 30 ms

    30 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 30 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 17.2 s

    17.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 21.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 10.0 s

    10.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 10.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.2 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 4.1 s

    4.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 4.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

8 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 2.4 s

    2.4 s

    Real visitors wait 2.4 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 166 ms

    166 ms

    Real visitors wait 166 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

  • Real-user TTFB: 634 ms

    634 ms

    Real visitors wait 634 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 38% faster for real visitors

    -38%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.7 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 3.7 MB in 287 requests

    3.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.7 MB in 287 requests on a phone: scripts 2.7 MB (200), images 527 KiB (13) and other files 300 KiB (57). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.06 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.06 g of CO₂e: 127.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

2 to fixGoogle 9598
  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (3 elements).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 41 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 48 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 2 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10083
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (BreadcrumbList and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: missing name”.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 63 internal links, 10 external

    The homepage links to 63 pages on blackroll.com and 10 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 122 characters

    Your meta description is 122 characters: “Discover BLACKROLL recovery, training and sleep products: foam rollers, massage guns, compression boots, pillows and mo…”.

  • Title: 64 characters

    Your title is a healthy 64 characters: “BLACKROLL Official Website | Recovery, Training & Sleep Products”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://blackroll.com/eu/en.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://blackroll.com/ch/de/sitemaps-1-sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

2 checks passed
  • AI answer engines may read the site

    Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (396 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix93
  • 3 pages share a meta description

    /eu/en/stories, /eu/en/products/blackroll-recovery-pillow-kids and /eu/en/products/blackroll-recovery-base-2-0 use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 3 pages without an H1

    /eu/en/shop, /eu/en/knowledge and /eu/en/stories have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 47 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 15 small tap targets

    15 of 30 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix94
  • 1 broken external link

    1 link to other sites is dead, for example https://www.youtube.com/@blackrollinternational7955/videos (404).

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

7 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (blackroll.com).

  • Valid certificate (73 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for blackroll.com and is valid for another 73 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://blackroll.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    blackroll.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    blackroll.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 19 years old

    19 years

    blackroll.com was registered in Feb 2007 through InterNetX GmbH. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Feb 2027

    blackroll.com is registered until Feb 2027.

Content and conversion

3 to fix50
  • No call to action on the first screen

    On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • No direct contact details

    No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • No risk reducer

    No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

  • About 403 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 403 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 8 calls to action

    The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “Shop”, “Shop – Open submenu” and “Try for free”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Email authentication

95
  • Email authentication score: 95/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

3 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: reject

    DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 ip4:195.65.192.79 ip4:195.49.85.179 ip4:69.72.38.204 ip4:185.159.204.2 include:spf.protection.outlook.com includ…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “selector2” and “k2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (OneTrust) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 5 cookies set on arrival

    5

    Opening the homepage sets 5 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 14 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 14 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: OneTrust

    A consent management tool (OneTrust) loads with the page.
